The NÖLB 20-21 were two steam railcars of the Niederösterreichische Landesbahnen (NÖLB).

In 1903, the NÖLB procured these two standard-gauge steam railcars at the same time as the narrow-gauge steam railcars 1–3 . The vehicles had the axle formula A1, the boilers corresponded to the original Komarek design , the wagon body was manufactured by Ringhoffer in Prague-Smichov . The vehicles had a steam dryer. The drive axle was stored in the outer frame. During the acceptance runs, one of the two vehicles carried a trailer load of 26 t (one company car, two passenger cars , three coal cars ) over the 18.6 ‰ steep and 1,040 m long ramp in front of Gaunersdorf at a speed of 27.4 km / h.

One of the railcars ran on the Siebenbrunn - Orth an der Donau route , the other between Gänserndorf and Gaunersdorf, which was later renamed Gaweinstal.

Since, as with the narrow-gauge railcars 1–3, they were not satisfied with the boilers, both vehicles were sold in 1918 .
